My Traxxas Rustler Modifications
Переглядів 12616 годин тому
An overview of the mods I've done to my Rustler. I try not to spend to much on this RC so I've kept my mods to minimum focusing on only those mods which increase the cars handling. These are very fun and durable cars but there's no need to get crazy and spend too much on meaningless upgrades. #traxxasrustler #traxxas #rccars #rccaraction #rccarmodification #rcbasher

    It is a fun on but it is very much like a hopper and skitters around when driving. I put the oil dampers on mine and it still skitters and hops a bit but it does help settle it down. I used the 50519 fronts and 50520 rear shock on it and if you shop around you can usually find them for not too much. It will be a fun one and one you don't have to take seriously when you are driving it. You just kind of sit back and enjoy trying to keep it out of trouble much like a GH!

      @@AddamsPlayground For some reason I find the "hoppers" to be a lot of fun to play around with. You know you can't get too serious with them and that's the fun. The thought of upgrading the shocks did cross my mind. Not sure how much it will help. I'm sure it will still hop around! 😁

      @@arkyrc it will still hop a bit but they do make a difference. It does not have so many of the "dart off in a different direction" type moves with the oil dampers on it!

    I have one, aweful handling, tooth pick for steering servo rods, no suspension articulation at all. BUT it has its own charm and never fails to put a smile on my face every time I take it out for a run, which is think is often the most overlooked bit of RC-ing.
